Racial Justice Parent Group
May 25 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am
Denver Waldorf Racial Justice Parent Group
The Denver Waldorf Racial Justice Parent Group is a collaborative and dedicated group of lifelong learners and Waldorf families who are committed to the process of deepening their knowledge, awareness, introspection, and advocacy skill sets around issues of racial justice through discussion, book study, supplemental materials, and taking action to become the change we want to see in the community. This group is dedicated to being a safe space for all – where non-expert learners can share, question, discover, grow, and work alongside one another to create a more inclusive, fair, equitable, honest, peaceful and unified future.

About the Denver Waldorf Racial Justice Parent Group
The RJPG formed in the Fall of 2020 as a response to the growing desire within the DWS community to ensure that the relevant and needed topic of racial justice was talked about throughout the school year and remained a topic of discourse that lifted up all people—including and centering around BIPOC voices.
We are committed to exploring the issues of racial justice through fostering a safe, open, warm and non-judgmental container by which to deepen our awareness through studying, growing and taking action together.
